Viewer

The Review Interface displays workspace documents. You can use the Viewer type tabs to toggle the loaded formats of documents, such as Native Viewer, Image Viewer, Extracted Text Viewer, or Productions Viewer. Using the Viewer, you can control the form of document that displays in the interface. If a document has not been imaged, you can image documents on-the-fly in the Viewer.

Note: Using your internet browser to zoom to any size other than 100% while using the Viewer is not supported and can cause unexpected behavior.

If you do not see the document in the Viewer, it either has not been loaded to the workspace, its conversion failed, or you do not have permission to see it.

Native Viewer

The Native Viewer displays an HTML rendering of the document that is as close to the original version of the document as possible. With the Native Viewer, you can:

• Navigate through a single document and between documents in a document set.
• Conduct text searching.
• Highlight text to copy and paste.
• Zoom, arrange, and save pages that you review in the Native Viewer.
• Print single documents by saving the document as a PDF. To learn more, see Create PDF.

Navigating the Native Viewer

The Native Viewer offers several ways of viewing and working with documents. There are options available in the following sections of the Viewer:

1. Native Viewer toolbar options
2. Left drawer Viewer options
3. Document actions menu
4. Viewer settings menu
5. Viewer breadcrumbs
6. Right drawer Viewer options

Each of these options and menus is described in more detail in the sections below.

Native Viewer toolbar options

The following toolbar options are available in the Native Viewer:

• Zoom Out/In —zooms out and in on the current document in increments of 10% within a range of 10% to 4,000%. If you attempt to zoom out to a percentage lower than 10%, the Viewer automatically sets the display to 10%. If you attempt to zoom in to a percentage higher than 4,000%, the Viewer automatically sets the display to 4,000%. Your zoom setting persists as you navigate through a document set. This means that if you have set one document to 150% and you go to the next document, the next document defaults to 150% zoom.
  To specify a zoom percentage without using the zoom out/in toolbar buttons, type the number in the percentage field and press the Enter key.
• Reset Zoom —resets the zoom to 100%.
• Fit Width —increases the size of the document to fit the maximum width of the Viewer. This setting persists when you re-size the window.
• Fit Page —fits the entire document into the total size of the page. Clicking this zooms out the document and reduces the font size.
• Fit Actual —fits the document display to the actual size it was in its native application. By default, this resets the zoom percentage to 100%.
• Layout Mode —select one of the following options to determine how documents that are more than one page long display in the Viewer.
  • Single —one page of a document will display at a time. Use the page navigation options at the bottom of the Viewer to adjust which page you view.
  • Single Continuous —displays the pages in the document stacked vertically so you can scroll up and down to view them.
  • Facing Continuous —displays the pages in the document in a row horizontally so you can scroll left and right to view them.
• Draft Mode —click to begin Draft Mode which automatically contrasts text from the background, help you identify poorly drawn redactions, and identify corrupt OCR text. This option is only available on the Native Viewer and PDF Viewer with rendered documents.
• Go To Next/Previous Highlight —moves through previous and next highlighted terms in the document.
• Rotate All Pages —rotates all pages in a document clockwise 90 degrees. This option is only available for documents that have been paginated.
• Redact Markup Visibility —this option determines how markups display in the Viewer.
  It only displays if you have the Redact application installed and open a PDF or spreadsheet document in the Native Viewer. For more information on which file types are compatible, see Redact supported file types.
  Click the Redact Markup Visibility icon to toggle between the following modes:
  • Solid - Markups in the document are fully visible and cover text underneath.
  • Transparent - Markups in the document are partially visible so that you can still see the text underneath.
  • Hidden - Markups in the document are not visible.
• Clear Markups —click to remove all markups from the currently selected markup set for this document. This icon only displays in PDF and Excel documents that have been prepared for Redact.
• Create PDF —click to save the current native document as a PDF file. When you click this option, the Create PDF pop-up displays. The document then opens in a new window in your browser as a PDF where you can then choose to save or print the document image.

Searchable PDF Improvements per Configuration

When you Create PDF from the Native Viewer or using the Mass PDF Operations bar, most types of searchable PDFs will now have significantly smaller file sizes. More specifically, images without highlights, but configured to be searchable and stamped, will benefit from the most dramatic decrease in file size. But overall, the Create PDF feature now generates reduced file saves for a wide range of configurations when creating searchable PDFs. In order to accomplish this for previously unknown file-types and mixed TIFF and JPEG Create PDF jobs, Relativity now treats each page individually, instead of treating the entire document as a whole, allowing for the best file-size-reduction technique possible for each page.

Image Format	Redactions	Highlights	File Size Reduction
TIFF	Yes	No	Up to 76%
TIFF	Yes	Yes	Up to 43%
JPEG	Yes	No	Up to 43%
JPEG	Yes	Yes	Up to 43%

After you click Create PDF, a copy of the document converts to a PDF file you can save from your web browser downloads. Relativity assigns a GUID for Create PDF file names.

• Search Bar —searches for terms in the current document and navigates through the hits.
  • Entering a term and either clicking the left or right arrow button or pressing Enter in this text box scrolls to and highlights the text of the next instance of the term, from the placement of the cursor.
  • Searching in this text box is not case sensitive.
  • Searching supports dtSearch and so proximity, fuzziness, and stemming can be used. To learn more about this search functionality, visit dtSearch.
  • You can remove a term you previously searched for or all of the terms you have recently searched for from the Persistent Highlight Pane. Removing a term or terms will also remove any highlights they generated in the document. To remove a term or terms, hover your cursor over the row of the term or recent searches you wish to remove and then click on the clear term 'x' icon in the right side of the row.
• Show/Hide Hidden Cells—displays or hides all hidden cells in a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet. This functionality is only available for Excel files and does not work on imaged documents because Relativity only images unhidden cells.

Left drawer Viewer options

The following options are available in the left drawer of the review interface:

• Persistent Highlighting—displays or hides a panel containing all recent searches from the criteria entered in the Search Bar and any persistent highlight sets in the workspace. See Persistent highlight sets for more information. Only terms in the sets and recent searches that are in the current document will display in the pane.
  Additionally, you can control which highlights display in the current document by clicking on either the persistent set to only display highlights from that set or you can click on a specific term to only see that term highlighted in the document.
  

• Thumbnail—click to expand the left drawer and display the Thumbnail Viewer. Each page of the document you are reviewing has its own numbered thumbnail in the Thumbnail Viewer. To learn more, visit Thumbnail Viewer.
• Sentiment—click to expand or collapse the left drawer and display sentiment analysis highlights in the Viewer. To learn more, visit Sentiment analysis highlights.
• aiR for Review Analysis—click to expand or collapse the left drawer and display aiR for Review results. You can also enable or disable aiR for Review highlights. To learn more, see aiR for Review Analysis.
• aiR for Privilege Analysis—click to expand or collapse the left drawer and display aiR for Privilege results. To learn more, see aiR for Privilege Analysis.

Right drawer Viewer options

The following options are available in the right drawer:

• Hidden Content—displays or hides all hidden cells in a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet. This functionality is only available for Excel files and does not work on imaged documents because Relativity only images unhidden cells.
• Contextual Search—click to expand the right drawer and display the Contextual Search card. This feature allows you to quickly navigate to matching search terms in a document which is useful in longer documents or ones that have many matching search terms. The Contextual Search card has the same functionality as the Search Bar. To learn more about the Search Bar's functionality, see Search Bar. Additionally, each search term match is displayed in a box that includes both words before and after the search term match to make it easy for you to view the context of each one.
  Enter a term or terms in the search box and press Enter on your keyboard to highlight in yellow any matches in the current document. You can click on a desired search term box in the pane to jump to that place in the document. The active search term box will display with a blue border and the matching search term in the document will be highlighted in blue to make it easy to find.
  If you have Relativity Redact installed, you can search for terms and apply markups to the results from the Contextual Search Pane. To learn more, visit Using Find and Redact.

1. Highlight the text you want copied.
2. Right-click, and then select Copy from the menu.

You cannot copy text if you:

• Have not highlighted any text.
• Do not have permission to the Local Access option on the Document object. This is the same permission that permits you to open the file in its native application. For more information, see Object list in the Workspace security topic.

Streaming audio and video files

Audio and video files can be streamed in the Native Viewer. Audio and video file type compatibility varies depending on your internet browser.

Note: If an audio or video file has not been opened in the Native Viewer, it may display with a value of No for the Supported by Viewer field. Once a file has been successfully opened by the Viewer, the Supported By Viewer field displays Yes.

For more information about which file types are compatible with your browser, see Viewer audio and video-supported file types.

The audio and video controls that display in the Viewer depend on your internet browser.

Browser	Audio Controls	Video Controls

Waveform audio

Waveform is a visualization of sound that you can view while listening to an audio file in the Native Viewer. Click the Show/Hide Waveform icon to display the Waveform visualization. The visualization tracks the volume and intensity of sound to help you avoid audio inactivity. You can use the audio controls to skip these sections. The visualization also scrolls with a time scale along the bottom to help you identify when a particular audio event occurs.

Document Intelligence

Document Intelligence notifies you that there is hidden or annotated content, including a pivot table or a filtered pivot table, present in the current document in the Native Viewer. This hidden content are the annotations and modifications tracked in certain document formats. For more information on the file types, see Tracking annotations. When hidden content is found in a document, a pop-up modal appears in the lower-right corner. Highlighting and bordering is also visible in the Viewer where the changes were made and a annotation bar is available to sort and view each annotation. Once the notifications appear, you can then choose whether or not to view tracked changes, hidden text and comments in the Viewer.

Tracking annotations

The various file types each have distinct annotations that are tracked. Below is each file type that is supported and the related tracked changes:

File type	File extensions	Annotation type	Tracked changes
Excel	.xls, .xlsx, .xlsb	Tracked Changes, formulas, hidden pages/columns/rows, Comments	Inserted cell, moved cell, modified cell, cleared cell Inserted column, deleted column Inserted row, deleted row Inserted sheet, renamed sheet
Word	.doc, .docx	Tracked Changes, comments, hidden text	Insertions, deletions, moves
PowerPoint	.ppt, .pptx	Speaker notes, comments, hidden slides
PDF	.pdf	Comments, text content outside the printable page

Using notifications and the annotation bar

When using Document Intelligence, an orange pop-up modal appears in the bottom right corner of the Viewer when hidden content exists. Click on the pop-up modal to see the hidden content on that document. If there is no hidden content found, the modal will say so. If there is hidden content found, it lists each piece of content. Click Show these items to open the annotation bar.

A hidden content icon is available when a supported file type is in the Native Viewer. Click the Hidden Content icon to open or close the annotations bar. If you are viewing an unsupported file type, the icon is not available. For supported file types, see the Tracking annotations.

Annotation bar

The annotation bar is for sorting and viewing the hidden content found with Document Intelligence. Each annotation has a card that lists the tracked change, a description of the change, time and date, and author of the change.

If there are multiple annotation cards in the annotation bar, then you can sort them in multiple ways. Click the Sort By drop down menu for these options:

• Location
• Author A-Z
• Author Z-A
• Oldest first
• Newest first
• Annotation type

Annotation types and highlights

Each type of annotation comes with its distinct highlight in the Native Viewer. Below is a table that lists each annotation type with its highlight in the Viewer:

File type	Modification	Annotation

Leader lines

Clicking on an annotation in the Viewer connects the selected annotation to the related annotation tile in the annotation bar. Click on another annotation to view the leader line to that annotation card. One grey connector line is available at a time, unless you moved a cell. In this case, there is a leader line where the cell was originally located and a leader line in the cell's new location. Click the same annotation to remove the leader line.

Image Viewer

When you switch to the Image Viewer, a .tiff or .jpeg version of the document displays. You can highlight and redact images in this mode. The Image Viewer is only available if you have loaded an imaged version of the document in the Viewer or if you have manually imaged the file using the Image on the fly option in the Document actions menu. For more information, see Imaging on the fly.

The redactions that are burned into a produced image are the redactions that were on the image at the time that you produced it. If you add or remove redactions from an image after you have produced it, then the image and the produced version of that image will be out of sync.

6. Right drawer Viewer options

Each of these options and menus is described in more detail in the sections below.

PDF Viewer toolbar options

The PDF Viewer provides the following options:

• Zoom Out/In —zooms out and in on the current document in increments of 10% within a range of 10% to 4,000%. If you attempt to zoom out to a percentage lower than 10%, the Viewer automatically sets the display to 10%. If you attempt to zoom in to a percentage higher than 4,000%, the Viewer automatically sets the display to 4,000%. Your zoom setting persists as you navigate through a document set. This means that if you have set one document to 150% and you go to the next document, the next document defaults to 150% zoom.
  To specify a zoom percentage without using the zoom out/in toolbar buttons, type the number in the percentage field and press the Enter key.
• Reset Zoom —resets the zoom to 100%.
• Fit Width —increases the size of the document to fit the maximum width of the Viewer. This setting persists when you re-size the window.
• Fit Page —fits the entire document into the total size of the page. Clicking this zooms out the document and reduces the font size.
• Fit Actual —fits the document display to the actual size it was in its native application. By default, this resets the zoom percentage to 100%.
• Layout Mode —select one of the following options to determine how documents that are more than one page long display in the Viewer.
  • Single —one page of a document will display at a time. Use the page navigation options at the bottom of the Viewer to adjust which page you view.
  • Single Continuous —displays the pages in the document stacked vertically so you can scroll up and down to view them.
  • Facing Continuous —displays the pages in the document in a row horizontally so you can scroll left and right to view them.
• Draft Mode —click to begin Draft Mode which automatically contrasts text from the background, help you identify poorly drawn redactions, and identify corrupt OCR text. This option is only available on the Native Viewer and PDF Viewer with rendered documents.
• Go To Next/Previous Highlight —moves through previous and next highlighted terms in the document.
• Redact Markup Visibility — this option determines how markups display in the PDF Viewer. Click the Redact Markup Visibility icon to toggle between the following modes:
  • Solid —Markups in the document are fully visible and cover text underneath.
  • Transparent —Markups in the document are partially visible so that you can still see the text underneath.
  • Hidden —Markups in the document are not visible.

Left drawer Viewer options

The following options are available in the left drawer:

• Show/Hide Persistent Highlighting—displays or hides a panel containing all Recent Searches from the criteria entered in the Search Bar and any persistent highlight sets in the workspace. See Persistent highlight sets for more information. Only terms in the sets and recent searches that are in the current document will display in the pane.
  Additionally, you can control which highlights display in the current document by clicking on either the persistent set to only display highlights from that set or you can click on a specific term to only see that term highlighted in the document.
  

• Thumbnail—click to expand the left drawer and display the Thumbnail Viewer. Each page of the document you are reviewing has its own numbered thumbnail in the Thumbnail Viewer. To learn more, visit Thumbnail Viewer.
• Sentiment—click to expand or collapse the left drawer and display Sentiment Analysis Highlights in the Viewer. To learn more, visit Sentiment analysis highlights.
• aiR for Review Analysis—click to expand or collapse the left drawer and display aiR for Review results. You can also enable or disable aiR for Review highlights. To learn more, see aiR for Review Analysis.

Right drawer Viewer options

The following options are available in the right drawer:

• Hidden Content—displays or hides all hidden cells in a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet. This functionality is only available for Excel files and does not work on imaged documents because Relativity only images unhidden cells.
• Contextual Search—click to expand the right drawer and display the Contextual Search card. This feature allows you to quickly navigate to matching search terms in a document which is useful in longer documents or ones that have many matching search terms. The Contextual Search card has the same functionality as the Search Bar. To learn more about the Search Bar's functionality, see Search Bar. Additionally, each search term match is displayed in a box that includes both words before and after the search term match to make it easy for you to view the context of each one.
  Enter a term or terms in the search box and press Enter on your keyboard to highlight in yellow any matches in the current document. You can click on a desired search term box in the pane to jump to that place in the document. The active search term box will display with a blue border and the matching search term in the document will be highlighted in blue to make it easy to find.

  If you would like to return to the prior Viewer state, click Reset Default Settings at the bottom of the page to restore the settings back to their original values.

Pop Out Viewer

You can open the Viewer in a new window in your browser using the Pop Out Viewer. The Document card and the Coding card remain in the previously opened browser window. They can be expanded to a greater width to take advantage of the space freed up by the Pop Out Viewer. The Pop Out Viewer retains the same functionality as the Viewer. For example, you can switch Viewer types and view highlights or the Thumbnail Viewer as desired.

To open the Pop-Out Viewer in a new browser window, select the Pop Out Viewer option from the Viewer settings menu in the upper-right corner.

To return the Viewer to the previous browser window where the Document card and Coding card are located, you can click either the Pop In Viewer button on the previous browser window or you can select the Pop In Viewer option from the Viewer settings menu in the upper-right.

Alternatively, if you close the browser window that the popped out Viewer is in, the Viewer pops in to the Review Interface or in other words, returns to the original browser window.

Document preview panel

The Document preview panel allows you to view documents in the document list before launching the Viewer. It also allows you to filter the list and quickly view documents in the results which makes the process of finding documents more efficient. To learn more, visit Document preview panel.

Related items card

The related items card is located at the bottom-right corner of the Viewer. Related items are customizable groups of documents within a workspace. Common examples are family groups, duplicates, or similar documents.

The Edit field will be available in the Related items card if you add it to the Relational card view.

The related items toolbar includes the following:

• Related items —displays a group of documents related to the active document. Options vary within the workspace. Hover over each icon to display the name of the item. Examples include: family group, duplicates, and thread group.

When a coding decision is made, the information in the Related Items card automatically refreshes. If there are two or more reviewers on the same document, a user can refresh this card by clicking on the Menu icon and selecting Refresh card.

The Related items card can be opened in a separate browser window. Click the Menu icon and select Pop out card to open the card in its own window. Click the Menu icon and select Pop in card to close the browser window and return the card to the Viewer.

Document actions in the related items card

You can use the related items card to quickly identify documents related to the active document. You can also use this card to act on those groups of related items.

For instance, in the example of the Related items card below, you can select some or all of the documents in the Related items card and click Edit. This opens a window for you to access all of your active layouts – the same layouts available in the layouts pane. Using these layouts, you can make coding decisions and apply them to the selected documents using mass editing. Alternatively, you can mass PDF, Save as List, Image, or Tally/Sum/Average. To learn more, see Mass operations.

If you add the Edit field to your relational card view, you can click the Edit icon in the row of a document and immediately open that document in the Viewer with the layout ready to be edited.

Document and Production History card

The Document History and Production History card is located in the bottom-right of the Viewer. This card displays either the document history or the production history, depending on which you have selected. The Document History card displays information about the most recent actions taken by users with the current document. The Production History card displays information on any productions that the current document was included in.

You can filter the columns to help find information or export the information in the Document History card to a .csv file.

You can refresh this card by clicking on the Menu icon and selecting Refresh card.

The Document History card can be opened in a separate browser window. Click the Menu icon and select Pop out card to open the card in its own window. Click the Menu icon and select Pop in card to close the browser window and return the card to the Viewer.

Document and Production History card permissions

The following permissions are required to access Document and Production History:

Object Security	Tab Visibility	Admin Operations

Documents card

The Documents card contains the document list so you can conveniently navigate from document-to-document without having to leave the Viewer. The fields that display in the card are based on which view is selected in the document list. Each time that you save a coding decision in the Viewer, the Documents card refreshes to show the latest results. The highlighted document in the document list now updates when you navigate from document-to-document to make tracking even easier.

If you're using Review Center, the Documents panel shows the documents in your current queue. For more information, see Reviewing documents using Review Center.

Email thread visualization tool

When you have installed and run an email threading structured analytics set for documents, you can use the email thread visualization tool. Launch the Email Thread Visualization pane, click the email thread visualization icon in the lower right corner of the displayed document in the Viewer. The email thread visualization pane expands and shows the thread group for the selected email in the Viewer.

Using this tool, you can visually examine email threads and how they are coded. You can also easily perform mass editing from this tool. See Email thread visualization for more information.

.eml and .msg header dates and times in the Viewer

.eml and .msg documents have header dates and times in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) format. The Relativity Native Time Zone Offset field determines how the Viewer handles time zones for .eml, .msg, and RSMF documents. To learn more about the Relativity Native Time Zone field, see Fields.

Note: Relativity does not automatically account for Daylight Savings Time. If you need the Viewer to account for Daylight Savings Time, deploy the Set Native Timezone Offset with DST script. To learn more, see Set native time zone offset with DST. You must be a Relativity admin to deploy this script.

Thumbnail Viewer

When in the Native Viewer, Image Viewer, or Productions Viewer, you can access and browse thumbnail renderings of a document's pages. Quickly scan, locate, and navigate to pages in an open document.

To open the Thumbnail Viewer, click Thumbnail icon in the left drawer. The left drawer expands and displays the Thumbnail Viewer. Scroll up and down to navigate all pages in the open document and click a page to view it. As you scroll through the document, the thumbnail viewer scrolls simultaneously to keep the viewed pages in focus.

The Thumbnail Viewer is compatible with word processor, presentation, vector image, and raster image file types.

Note: The Thumbnail Viewer may not be available in the Native Viewer for document types that do not paginate such as spreadsheets or plain text.
